Beast Cops
Feb 21, 2015‘Beast Cops’ is a powerfully shot and highly entertaining movie that raises some important issues regarding today’s society, which really need to be addressed.
-
Comeuppance
Mar 1, 2015The style and substance of ‘Comeuppance’ are in well-balanced equilibrium as neither overtakes the other, but there is still something indefinable that proves to be obvious by the time the credits roll.
-
Just Another Pandora’s Box
Apr 2, 2015Having emerged from the debacle that was ‘Kung-Fu Cyborg’, Jeff Lau returns to his beloved sub-genre of the nonsensical and it’s certainly an improvement on his previous effort.
-
Killers From Beijing
Apr 3, 2015There really is very little reason to recommend ‘Killers From Beijing’ as it is disappointing on just about every level of competent film-making.
-
Lady Cop & Papa Crook
Apr 5, 2015Interest is created in ‘Lady Cop & Papa Crook’ by its style and verve, yet the story and characters are successful in doing the opposite.
-
Master Z: Ip Man Legacy
Dec 25, 2019Competently directed by the legendary Yuen Woo-Ping and utilising a decent budget, ‘Master Z’ is pleasingly straight-forward, action soaked entertainment.
-
Purple Storm
May 16, 2015If you’re not expecting a deep examination into Asia’s politics then ‘Purple Storm’ is an absorbing and emotionally charged action-thriller that does more than just pass the time.
-
The Duel
Mar 9, 2015With a clearly impressive budget and a star-studded cast, it is to be expected that the film is padded out and not always as engrossing as it should have been.
-
The Legend Of Zu
Apr 6, 2015It has its faults and no-one could call it the greatest movie ever made. Importantly though, this is a fabulous example of how a combination of technology and innovation can still wow the jaded viewer.
-
The Myth
May 3, 2015At times frustrating and yet mostly entertaining, ‘The Myth’ may not be vintage Chan, but there are glimpses here of a performer who is still a valuable treasure for world cinema.
-
The Storm Warriors
Jun 1, 2015As the style inevitably overpowers the substance, the facade of a plot begins to break apart and the husk of a film is left.
